Cricket Club

Welcome to Houston Indian Cricket Club’s (HICC) new website, hicccricket.com. HICC is a premier club in HCL for more than 20 years and has won several championships. HICC is not only a cricket club but also a growing family where members with their respective families meet and have a good time. It is needless to say that HICC supports its members in times of need. Given that, HICC’s primary goal is to win. Growth of HICC has been tremendous. Starting from one team representation at HCL level, we now have 3 teams representing the club.

HICC is a diversified club and welcomes everyone who is interested in joining our family. We have members aged from 10 to 60+. In 2015 we are planning to expand our kids coaching program with help of our Coach Ricardo Powell (former West Indies Cricketer).

History

A group of friends who were passionate about cricket started this club and joined HCL as Jolly Cricket Club. The founders of the club were Mr. Vasant Patel and Ghanshyam Patel. Their dedication and hard work 25+ years ago laid the foundation for a successful club. The name of the club was later changed to Houston Indian Cricket Club (HICC).

Achievements

HICC has a bunch of talented players who currently represent Houston, Texas and Central West in the regional and national championships respectively. Few players have gone on and represented the country as well. In Houston Cricket League, HICC has reached play-offs consistently and reached the finals for the first time in 1999. In the last 14 years, HICC has won the HCL Championship Seven times (2001, 2002, 2003, 2008, 2011, 2013, 2014) and has been Runner's Up three times (2009, 2010, 2012).

Facility

HICC is very fortunate to have their own cricket ground, Sardar Patel Stadium built on the land owned by Gujarati Samaj of Houston. HICC is thankful to Gujarati Samaj of Houston for allowing us to use the land for cricket ground. With donations and sponsorship from our supporters we have made the Sardar Patel Stadium the best ground in Houston.
